Pros: This is the third Atom I have put together, two dual-core and one single-core. GREAT board, works fine with easy installation. from Newegg.com Pros: Super easy to install and get running. I'm using Xubuntu (free!) instead of Windows, and had no problems at all, once I figured out how to get the board powered up. from Newegg.com Pros: Low power with everything that's needed on board - excellent board for setting up as a server. The cons are no big problem for me since I bought this board for 1 reason - to build a Media server. from Newegg.com Windows 7 installed with no problems as a test. seems to play full screen video with very little CPU use. Perfect green low power use motherboard for either an always on home server or media center computer. Also would work great for a web browser general home PC. from Newegg.com Pros: I bought the D945GCLF2 for the express purpose of building a small NAS and media server for my home. I put it in a Chenbro ES34069 case with 4-1TB HDD in a RAID 5 and running WinXP Pro SP3. from Newegg.com Pros: Please see all my reviews under Mad MACReplaced a PATA hard drive with a SATA I---2nd SATA port seems fine! Cons: Please see all my reviews under Mad MAC Other Thoughts: It seems like a trivial Pros(2nd SATA works); nonetheless, it should still deserve some credit! from Newegg.com Pros: A wonderful well designed inexpensive board while working - would give it 5++ stars if reliable. Ideally suited to hd driveless hi-security live Linux cd applications/usb hd drive solutions/internal hd drive usages. from Newegg.com The first board I received was DOA. The second board lasted 2 days. Other Thoughts: I gave up on the Atom 330 and bought an AMD 5050e with motherboard. The Intel system consumed 35 watts at idle and the AMD consumes 40 watts. from Newegg.com Pros: So most folks say that this board is made for low end computers or some sort of file server. And they may very well be right but this board has also a lot of potential. I was initially debating whether to buy this $79 atom 330 board with graphics which are not quite "hot" or to try to find ION board. But i decided to go with the cheaper of the two because $200 for a mini board with atom330 .. from Newegg.com Pros: Cheap board with all of the basic features included. The entire system runs idle around 40W and under load at 50-60W. The atom 330 runs a quad video capture card for my security system just fine. With the s-video I can pump the feed directly to my TV. from Newegg.com
